Safety-Certified In-Cabin Architectures: From Concept to ISO 26262 Evidence
As in-cabin systems become more sophisticated, demonstrating functional safety is no longer just about meeting compliance requirements.
Modern software-defined vehicle architectures demand safety to be built into the platform from the very beginning, with careful attention to partitioning, isolation, verification and traceability. In this interview, Ofra Bechor, Regional Field Application Engineer at Green Hills Software, explains the architectural principles behind safety-certified in-cabin systems, the realities of ISO 26262 assessment, and how development teams can reduce certification effort while building scalable, future-ready platforms.
IAA Mobility 2025 – In-Cabin Technology Innovations from Chinese OEMs and Suppliers
China’s presence at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich was substantial, with more than 100 Chinese companies exhibiting. The strongest focus was on in-cabin systems, audio/haptics, and domain controllers. Interestingly, the most tangible new launches came from Tier-1 and full-stack providers—such as Desay SV, ECARX, AAC, and ZHUOYU (ZYT Technology)—rather than OEM-exclusive features. Positioned as mass-production ready and targeted at European programs, these solutions will also be a core focus of the Hefei InCabin event in November.
